Is 750w good enough?

[S.A.S]

Hi guys, friend of mine is building a new PC and we are stuck on PSU options, mainly due to the lack of PSUs out there. We were wondering if a Seasonic 750w Focus Platinum would be enough for this build? Or whether pushing to 850w would be better?

Specs in build
CPU: AMD 5950x
GPU: GIGABYTE 3080 EAGLE OC
RAM 32GB 3600mhz C16 8 pack memory
Motherboard: GIAGABYTE X570 MASTER
Drive: 1TB Sabrent rocket Gen4 NVMe drive
Cooler: Fractal S36 AIO

System will be split use for CAD and gaming.

Thanks for the help

Technically yes but you might want to go 850w just to be safe.

750w will be plenty. I've got the 750w focus plus gold with a 5900X and a 3080.

I think you want to watch this. He's testing a 5950x & a 3080 flat out with Furmark & Cinebench 23 on a loop.

If CPU were Intel then I would suggest going for 850W.
But AMD's TDP is lot more honest and also in gaming most cores aren't fully loaded so 750W isn't bad.
